| nail 4 PROUD OF HER ‘RECORD idaho for the tittn time takes its place among the honor states ot the union py making a big cver -substription to the fittn lubérty loan. its oversubscrip- won was $684,250. ‘The quota assigned was $11,039,650. The total subscriptions with all re- ports in the state subscribed ' $11,673,900. There were 54,729, subscribers. According to the figures given out by the state chairman Cottonwood and vicinity sub-| s¢ribed more than 12 counties individually, the amount raised through the local banks being $96,000 or $24,000 more than its; quota. Idaho county raised $345,950, and this amount was subscribed by 1135 subscribers or in other words an average of a little bet- ter than $300 for every subscri- ber in the county. : Cottonwood is exceedingly proud ofits record in the Vic- tory Loan’ to which it can point with great pride: Throughout the state there were but a few counties which failed to make their quota. Their deficit was made up by other counties which greatly ov- ersubscribed. Shoshone county leads in oversubscriptions with $572,850. Twin Falls had an oversubscription of $29,250; Bannock county went over the top $185,450, and many other counties did themselves proud by oversubscribing. Record Appreciated. : The record made by Idaho is greatly appreciated by J. U. Cal- kins, governor of the twelfth federal reserve district. who, in a telegram to Montie B. Gwinn, state chairman, said: | “You and your associates are to be congratulated on this very happy outcome of your labors. I want to thank you particul- arly for the time and energetic effort which you have so freely and loyally given to this impor- tant work. You have the satis- faction of knowing that you have:helped your government at a time when it most needed your help. No commendation from me could possibly add to that knowledge, which must be your greatest reward. : Following is the quota assign- ed to the 44 counties in Idaho: the number of subscribers in each and the amounts subscrib- Count Sub.

In “The: Atom” Miss Starke has an opportunity to display all the whimsicalities and cute, droll mannerisms of which she is such a born little mistress. As Jenny, a wistful little thing of love and longing, she drabs her life away in the dark boarding house as a slavey until romance calls, opening the shining vistas of a glorious life.

'The tag often affixed to the name of a public character is that “in private life” he or she is this or that. How many of us behind the scenes of the world’s stage are all that we face the world with? An Irish comedian, suffering acutely from shell shock, made his rebellious body obey his spirit, to give entertain- ment to soldiers at the front in a play he wrote and managed, in which he assumed the chief part. Twice during the evening they found him outside the shed, crying as though his heart would break. Each time he gathered himself to- gether and went back to his appointed task of bringing good cheer to the rest, This kind of dissembling is only to be praised. There is another sort that is not laudable. “Throwing a front” gets a man just so far and no farther. The deception is pierced before long. The manner of man he truly is comes to be known by the company he keeps, by the chance word he lets fall, by the look in his face when he Is off his guard. Happiness comes to crown the life of the man’who is the same, essential- ly, at all times and in all places. He Is not acting a part. He is always his own genuine, human self, and he does not know how to be anybody else. His private conduct and his: public deeds do not need to be recontiled, for all‘ his life is an open book that needs no apology or explanation. GET THEIR SUPPLY DIRECT People of Naples Have Goats Brought Into Their Places of Residence and There Milked. Goats in flocks, wearing wooden collars and escorted by goatherds, usually women or children, make free of the sidewalks of Naples, and constitute one of the most character- istic sights of that city. The herds are driven through the various streets and are taken into the houses, and even up to the third or fourth story, and there milked. The explanation that is given for the custom of driving the goats into the city and into the houses, sometimes to the top floors, to be milked, is that the consumers are thus assured of having the same qual- ity of milk every day and of knowing that it is not diluted. Although it would ordinarily be ex- pected that quartities of milk would be sold in a city like Naples, of nearly a million inhabitants, it is, however, supporting ‘Miss Starke are ‘Mr. Harry Mestayer, Belle Bennett, Gene Burr and other well known Triangle favorites. not used to a great extent by all classes of native Neapolitans. It is used by invalids, infants and old GES) =) SSS qc el classes, because of their inability to get nourishment from other sources, Naples gets its supply principally from near-by towns through the media of the dairies and other establishments which distribute the milk to the people through the agency of the “latterie,” and from the goats or cows kept in or near the city. There is also a small amount of donkey’s milk, which is used only in small quantities and for those who are ill. Mirrors Made Useful. Mirrors are great aids in the little house, for they give vistas and reflect distances in a most charming and very realistic way. One of the most satis- factory examples of their being able to effect spaciousness is seen in a much frequented restaurant. The din- ing room is very long, but unbelievably | narrow. Indeed, ordinarily, it wouldn't do for the purpose at all, for folk would have a distressed smothered feeling between the two close walls. But the actual size of the restaurant is more than doubléd in illusion, be- cause the walls are solid mirrors from end ‘to end, so that one has the impres- sion that the place is without walls, and looking through the mirrors, which, of course, reflect one another from opposite sides of the room, the tables and people and lights and flow- ers spread far beyond the power of the eye to follow, and there is felt an exhilaration and a freedom which the little restaurant and the small crowd of diners could not pretend to give of themselves. Reverence for Life. Only place all life before the child as within the realm of humanity, and thus the greater reveals to him the less. Put life and soul into eve thing; describe to him even the lily, which he would pull up as an unorgan- ized thing, as the daughter of a slen- der mother, standing in her garden bed, from whom her little white off- spring derives nutriment and moisture. And let not this"be done to excite an empty enervated habit of pity, a sort of inoculation hospital for foreign pains, but from the religious cultivation of reverence for life, the God all-moving in the tree top and the human brain. The love of animals, like material uaf- fections, hus this advantage, that it Is disinterested and claims no return, and ean also at every moment find an ob- ject and an opportunity for its exer- cise.—Ralph Waldo Emerson. = Uneasy Payments. “And we can sell you this car on easy payments,” said the agent, pleas- antly. “My friend,” replied the prospect, “the expression ‘easy payments’ be- longs to the same category with that other well-known fib, ‘painless dentist- ry."--New York Globe.

The miseries that have all but overwhelmed the city of Jerusalem have robbed even the boys of any inclination to play, except now and then a pathetic imitation of foot- ball as indulged in by the British “Tommies” of General Allenby’s: lib- erating army. So writes Miss Libby Oppenheim, a New York girl, who ts the secretary of the American Zionist medical unit which is now operating in Palestine, Miss Oppenheim was charged with the task of distributing a contribu- tion of toys which accompanied one of the clothes shipments sent recently to the Holy land by the Palestine sup- plies department of the Zionist or- ganization of America. The toys were distributed to the kindergartens, the schools, the orphanages and to the two children’s hospitais in Jerusalem and Jaffa, Miss Oppenheim personally took some of the toys to the girls’ orphan- age, and she describes the scene that transpired. “We first explained the toys to Mrs. S—— the head of the or- phanage and to her assistant. Mrs. ES then assembled the children in one room and told them to cover their eyes, as she had a surprise for them. “Then she and her assistant brought in a few toys at a time and placed them on a table. The children’s pa- tience could not last until all the toys were brought in, but when, through the corners of their eyes, they saw a few of the toys they were almost be- side themselves with Joy. “One little minx of six, whose pa- tience had got out of bounds, asked, very pertinently: ‘But when do we get them? The children in one hospital in Jerusalem and Tel Avi were also! made happy by this fine donation of toys.” QUEER MYTH ABOUT WILSON Belief in Austria That President of the United States Is Really Crown Prince Rudolph, According to the Vienna Journal, @ serious newspaper, the rural popula- tion of large districts of the provinces of Lower Austria and Styria never be- lieved in the death of Crown Prince Rudolph of Austria, who was assas- sinated in the castle of Meyerling, near ; Baden, together with Countess Vecs- | cera In 1889, The people refused to accept this of- ficial statement, and their suspicion was nourished at the time by the fact that the coffin of the crown prince at ?
